At Gleneagles Hospital Johor, we believe that better recovery is better care.
We were proud to showcase our journey with Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) at the 1st Malaysian Perioperative Medicine Symposium 2026.
The presentations bridged practical clinical insights from our Anesthetist and ERAS Lead & Advisor, Dr. Shahridan Fathil, and ERAS Coordinator, Staff Nurse Ernizah, with strategic leadership perspectives from Dr. Kamal Amzan, CEO of IHH Healthcare Malaysia. Together, they reinforced a vital message: ERAS is designed fundamentally for the good of the patient.
Since 2025, Gleneagles Hospital Johor has championed the ERAS approach—a multimodal perioperative care pathway designed to achieve early recovery for patients undergoing major surgery.
ERAS represents a paradigm shift, replacing traditional surgical methods with evidence-based best practices. By proactively addressing key recovery barriers, such as gut dysfunction and limited mobility, our coordinated team effort minimizes surgical disruption. This empowers patients to recover faster, keeping their dignity and quality of life firmly at the center of the journey.
